cv joint grease

ok, what grease are you guys using in your joints? i am going to replace a couple of busted boots and want to re-grease the joints.

I just use regular grease. Does depend on what boots you are going to use tho mate.

hpi 5b. does anyone make silicon boots?

No idea Bud, If they're the same size as the FG type then you can use a part from a VW polo, it's the grommet for the rear wiper cable - it's a perfect fit and far tougher than the standard boot aside from the fact it's only pence compaired with the FG type.
